The article only mentions Rokfin, but what other live stream alternatives are there? Youtube has the most draw and algo suggestions, along with a huge community. I pay for YT because it offers a lot of great content and a good value, so I understand why creators would want to stick to that platform. And what about indie streaming? Is there some package that glues some open source components, either to the cloud or bare metal? I feel like there is a space for another livestream community, like YT, like Twitch, and like a Podcast, but without the main stream market filters. Maybe there is and I'm not aware of it. When Defcon did their 'live stream' last year, they did a torrent of the pre-recorded content, YT, and Twitch because they were worried something might go wrong. By wrong it could have been anything from knocking over the service to getting banned for ... Defcon ideas. I don't think the Defcon shoot out was on there. They added live Q&A with Discord and YT. But that was it -- the only open source part was Discord (which did fall over).
